This episode was a pretty big pain to work with. Balloon Banki is apparently based on Tora-san from Otoko wa Tsurai yo so he throws puns and nonsense lines all over the place. I tried my best to replace them with appropriate jokes.

I did some research om Vacuum Banki's attack, "Zui zui zukkorobashi", and found out that it's a reference to an old children's song and that doesn't seem to have a direct translation or meaning. Since I'm thinking they chose that attack name because "zui" is supposed to be the sound of a vacuum cleaner, I changed it to "Eenie meenie vroom vroom".

Every instance of "ani" and "aniki" have been changed to "bro" and "big bro" respectively.

Go-on Silver's official translation of her roll call is "World Sparkling", but I thought that's too awkward and engrish-y so I left it as Sparkling World.

There have been a couple of instances where TVN missed the "cockscomb is standing up" idiom so far (I changed the lines to "ruffles my feathers"). I guess takenoko didn't learn that phrase until the Go-onger Net Movies.

TVN missed the part about Renn thinking Gunpei's drawing was a UMA (unidentified mysterious animal) by just leaving it as "yuma", as if Renn was making up a word. Why would he do that? He's a smartypants. (Thinking of it now, maybe "cryptid" would've been better than UMA since I don't think many people would know what a UMA is. Change it in the script and re-mux it if you like)
